• ECOLOGY
• The passion fruit originated in tropical America, prefers hot and humid climates, and is cultivated in all tropical countries. Currently, Brazil is the world’s leading producer of passion fruits. In the state of Pará, there is a long tradition of cultivating passion fruit, especially in the Bragança region, where 33,000 tons of fruit were produced in 2008.
• Passion fruits are climbing plants that need a support structure to grow on because the stems of this plant are semi-woody and do not allow it to stand on its own. The support structure for passion fruit is built with wooden stakes and smooth wire. A good support system allows the branches to have enough space to grow, which allows productive branches to receive the proper amount of light. Commercial production starts ten months after planting. The yield of yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is estimated to be approximately 10 tons/ha/year. The production cycle usually lasts about 2 to 3 years.
• The peel of passion fruit, which represents 40% to 50% of the fruit weight, is considered industrial waste, as well as the seeds, which represent about 6% to 12% of the total fruit weight. Oil can be extracted from the seeds for industrial use. The oil yield from the dry seeds of passion fruit reaches about 25%. One hectare can produce approximately 480 kg of dry seed, which equals 96 kg of oil when using cold extraction.

• What Is Maracuja Oil?
• Maracuja oil is extracted from the seeds of the maracuja plant, found in the lush South American rainforests (just like our other friend, the acai berry). The name “maracuja” might not sound familiar to you at first, but it goes by a more common name that you may know: passion fruit. The Passiflora edulis fruit and its passion flower are native to Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina, and bear a gorgeous purple bloom that’s the true source of the maracuja seed oil. The passion fruit juice you enjoy drinking so much comes from the fat, seedy fruit of the maracuja plant that’s also dark purple in colour. The fruit has become a small celebrity in the culinary world, and is widely used in salads, cocktails, and desserts. Maracuja isn’t just a decadent sweet treat; it also boasts a host of health perks. Maracuja oil is extracted from these juicy seeds through cold pressing, and bears a variety of health benefits for the whole body.
• Health Benefits of Maracuja Oil - Long before we knew about the tropical taste of passion fruit juice, the natives of South America had been using maracuja for its therapeutic and nutritional benefits for hundreds of years. Maracuja fruit is packed with a long list of vitamins and antioxidants, including vitamin C and beta carotene that can help fend off damaging free radicals.
• Provides key nutrients -Passion fruit is a beneficial fruit with a healthful nutrition profile. It contains high levels of vitamin A, which is important for skin, vision, and the immune system, and vitamin C, which is an important antioxidant. Passion fruit also contains phosphorus, niacin, and vitamin B-6, which a healthy body needs
• Rich in antioxidants - Passion fruit is rich in antioxidants, which are compounds that help to mop up harmful free radicals in the body.Antioxidants play a vital role in keeping the body systems healthy.

• Maracuja Oil for Skin - Maracuja oil itself is rich in essential fatty acids and nutrients, which are vital to skin health. Linoleic acid in maracuja oil keeps skin moisturized and is ideal for soothing dry, flaky skin and also acne prone skin. Maracuja oil is rich in protective antioxidants like lycopene, to battle the effects of sun damage, pollution, and other environmental stressors. Lycopene works with maracuja’s natural vitamin C content to even skin tone and promote collagen production for firmer, brighter, smoother skin and less visible wrinkles. To nourish dry skin with maracuja oil, first make sure you’re buying the right kind. We prefer to use 100% pure, cold pressed maracuja oil, to receive the highest amount of nutrients. To use as a face oil, start by applying a few drops of your cold pressed maracuja oil into hands. Massage into cleansed skin of face and neck, after your natural toner and serum. You may want to finish with a natural moisturizer to seal in moisture and create a healthy, protective barrier between your skin and the elements.
• Maracuja Oil in Mask - Maracuja oil-infused mascara takes you one (giant) step closer to clump-free, feathery volume and healthier lashes.The fruit pigments in makeup products offer gorgeous color, but are also infinitely more gentle on eyes and skin than your average cosmetic colorants. The absence of harmful synthetic dyes means that you can enjoy bold, beautiful lashes without the threat of burning, irritation, or watery eyes.Protecting your lash, eye, and skin health wasn’t enough – the best volumizing mask needed to be friendly for long wear, resistant to clumping, and easy to apply.
• Maracuja Oil for Hair - Since hair and skin share many similar nutrient needs, maracuja oil benefits can also extend to your scalp. Collagen keeps your skin plump and firm, and can also strengthen your hair to prevent it from splitting and breaking. The high antioxidant content in maracuja protects against hair loss, and moisturizing properties of this oil are effective for conditioning hair to enhance smoothness and volume. That sounds like something we’d all love for our eyelashes, too! Applying maracuja oil for hair is easy! Warm a dime sized amount of maracuja oil in your hands, by rubbing palms together. To smooth dry hair, start with clean, towel dried hair. Start at your ends, then work up to your ear area, stopping before you get to the scalp. For thicker, kinky, or coarse hair, add additional oil to the scalp and roots until hair is smooth.

• PHYSICAL-CHEMICAL DATA AND APPLICATIONS
• The passion fruit oil (Passiflora edulis) is distinguished by a high concentration of omega-6 (linoleic acid up to 70%), which provides the replacement of essential fatty acids, which helps to reduce the transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
• The passionfruit oil is highly recommended in scalp and hair care products to encourage healthy hair growth and increased vitality and contributes to volume and lightness; helps to reduce high levels of oily scalp.
• The unsaponifiable matter includes flavonoids that are known to have sebum-regulating properties without decreasing it too deeply, as this triggers the rebound effect with increased fat production. Passiflorine and maracujine show a soothing effect on the skin.
